Federer enters the billionaire club: how much he has earned his career

Roger Federer has officially become a partner of the exclusive sports club of sportsmen who managed to become “bilionaries”, that is, with a official bank account of over one billion dollars. This was certified by the magazines of the “Fortune” and “Forbes” sector, specialized in dealing with the rich in the pocket (indeed, very rich) and counting earnings and properties. Being mentioned in the middle of those pages is a status symbol, a certification of your success. The Swiss champion must only be a part of the heritage, the less conspicuous one, among other things, to the extraordinary results obtained in the career. The prize pool accumulated by the 20 times Slam winner was 130.6 million dollars in total, but it is also off the pitch that Roger has once again proved to be a phenomenon. To the money conquered between trophies and victories, are added the 500 million dollars of the investment in the altitudes, a Swiss brand of clothing and shoes that is becoming increasingly famous, and the 669.4 million deriving from other sponsors, numerous and all of the highest level. All for a total of 1.3 billion euros earned.

Federer was the most paid tennis player in the world for 16 consecutive years and in 2020 he even led the ranking of all sportsmen globally, with an estimated profit of 106.3 million dollars.

Really not bad, for Federer, and in the history of sport there are very few, very few, to have managed to overcome this incredible milestone. We are talking about people of the caliber Lebron James, Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and Floyd Mayweather. Then there are other former sportsmen, who have become billions subsequently, such as the former tennis player Ion Tiriac (estimated assets 2.3 billion), Michael Jordan, today estimated at 3.8 billion dollars, and then the former Lakers Star Magic Johnson (1.5 billion)
